Well done mate!:thumbup:
Hope it all goes well for you, you should take that junk to the local car boot sale, in the current economic climate you'll make a few bob rather than just throwing it all in the bin!:thumbsup:

Good luck dude.

Couple of things I would do B4 leaving.

While in Canada If your going to be making transactions from your UK bank online or at an ATM get a letter off to the fraud department either via your local branch or directly. Make sure you tell them your going to Canada and will be making transactions. We went into the local branch and were assured all would be OK...:) Made a transaction and they froze the account....:frown: until they had investigated the incident... even though we took steps to avoid this it still happened. Now I know they have a job to do but we did inform them... obviously the fraud dept act on a different system or bloody something.

Get your no claims discount letter ASAP it can save you a lot of money (if your thinking of getting a car that is).

Any Q's just ask.

Cheers n Good Luck Dave
